12. The only exception is a study with a nonfixed fraction of agents of each type, where the Schelling model is simply replaced by the Ising model: this corresponds to a situation with no vacancies and with moves consisting in replacing an agent of a given type by an agent of the other type.

25. The proof is left to the reader. One shows that the considered dynamics is a Monte Carlo dynamics for a BEG model at the temperature 1 / β, with a transition matrix which is irreducible and satisfies the detailed-balance condition. If q ± is the fraction of agents of type ± 1 in the reservoir, for any nonzero rate of exchanges with the reservoir one gets as stationary state the Gibbs distribution associated to the energy E B E G (K = 2 T - 1, 2 D) - 1 2 β [ln (q + q -) i c i 2 + ln q + q - i c i]. In the present case q ± = 1 / 2.
